How do you improve patient and client outcomes? Is it possible to prevent burnout in high-pressure fields? In this episode, surgical oncologist Dr. Laura Lambert explores what leaders can learn from the operating room and what it truly means to have the privilege of caring for another human being, whether as a doctor or as a leader.
